People across the world scrape out a living --unless, of course, you are a mission president, and then your pay comes in blessings and an occastional P Day when you can don your casual clothes and act like a tourist. (Hinckley's in Barcelona) 
But.....most of the time it is a dark suit and tie and heels and hose! (Staheli's in Paris) 
Being a guard at the Tower of London, at least keeps you out of the rain! 
Of course if you are brilliantly talented, you don't wait for an agent. You just take to the subway or the streets. Either way you collect coins from those who think you are really good or think you are really bad -- 
These human statues take the cake. How long do you think it takes him to get dressed each morning and how long do you think it takes him to dismantle himself and wash off that nasty make-up. And how many coins could you collect to make it all worth while. And in the meantime, what do you do when you have to scratch!! Makes my skin crawl to think of it!
Now these smart entrepreneurs only have to put on costumes and wigs. Ok, on a pleasant day it might be bearable, but what about rain, and heat, to say nothing of boredom!!!!
My conclusion: Get a real job, one that has a pay check attached to it. It may be boring, but it could not be this bad!
WE HAD SO MUCH FUN WITH YOU! Let's have P day in Barcelona again someday. xoxo
